    It's sad that my PvP window with my Klingon alts was so short. :(

    Since all my friends were on the Fed side, my Klink characters were always secondary. With the rep grind and equipment grind rising, my Klingon characters were quickly abandoned to PvE builds.

    With DR, I have not touched my Klink, Rom and Fed alts in ages.

    Remember when people said that "Klingon weapons" (Disruptors) were OP and that Phasers needed a buff?

    Disruptors are still OP and phaser need a buff in comparison to them.

    The addition of new things which need balance does not eliminate the old issues. It just sort of sidelines them.

    I think Phasers are fine. They just need to make SubD have less suckage so disables like that are worth using again.
    I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
    I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.

    Still think that they should have done...

    Elite Phased Disruptors
    Elite Disrupting Phasers

    ...if we're traveling down memory lane here. ;)

    So what you're saying is they need a buff...

    Honestly, I'd completely remove the Phaser proc and replace it with something else. It's never going to be anything other than too weak or too powerful, because it's not something that should be a proc.

    They should rework Subsystem Targeting into a single ability, where the player can select which Subsystem they target...and take it from there.

    The Vaadwaur Polaron proc would have been something I'd have pictured more for Phasers...oh well.

    Do you not remember when the phaser proc was so OP they added a lockout timer after it triggers? You were QUITE able to keep the disables going on a target.

    The PvP whiners/recpients of said effect got the phaser proc nerfed into absolute uselessness. NOW it's useless. Before? It was quite desirable.

    What a difference an immunity timer makes.

    I'm totally ok with them restoring phasers to their original state. Its not like it will mean anything anymore. The game is dead.

    I just LOL no ones prepared to admit the games basically in maintenance mode.

    Wish that STO was in "maintenance mode", even wish it was "abandonware". But the sad part is that it ISN'T, it is still updated, bugs are still introduced, it IS actively developed. Not looking as "maintenance mode" to me! What remains then?... Incompetence, greed, lack of vision, lack of resources?... Hmm... who knows?

    Looking for a nice place to take a nap ?
    Head on over to Ker'rat.

    What was once a raging war zone, is now a ghost town.
    I miss the horrifying sound of DHC Disruptor fire ripping into my shields and hull...
    :(

    Phasers are very good to PVP as they are now.
    At least a couple of tac use them and they are very good.

    I was pondering to upgrade an alternative phaser set myself at a moment.
    "There already is a Borg faction, its called the Federation. They assimilate everyone else's technology and remove any biological or technical distinctiveness and add it to their own."
